DeGuaita, Stanislas: Stanislas de Guaita et sa Bibliotheque Occulte. 2003

DeGuaita, Stanislas. Stanislas de Guaita et sa Bibliotheque Occulte. Paris: Dorbon Librarie, 1899. Mansfield Centre, CT: Martino Publishing, 2003. Hardbound. Cloth. Oversized Octavo. 299 pp. New. *Stanislas de Guaita was descended of a noble Italian family who had settled in France. He was born April 6, 1861 in the castle of Alteville. He studied at the Liceo de Nancy where he developed a natural propensity toward the empirical sciences, most notably chemistry, reaching a level of true mastery for his time. Over a period of time he gravitated more toward satisfaction of the artistic and literary spirit that lead him into metaphysics and the study of Cabala. Stanislas de Guaita brought together in his house the biggest private library of writings on metaphysical subjects, magic, and hidden sciences in general that could be found in France in that century. In 1899 the French Booksellers Librarie Dorbon published a catalogue of the occult books in the Library of Stanislas de Guaita. Included in this catalogue are 2227 books on the occult. The editors also provide a list of anonymous titles. Though once reprinted in 1980, no copies are currently in print. A hard-to-find title. Not located in Besterman.
